It might be easier to obtain the whole mod_perl 2.0 sources via cvs, rather than patching - this is described at http://perl.apache.org/download/source.html#2_0_Development_Source_Distribution You likely have a cvs client already, so it's a matter of changing to an appropriate directory and doing % cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/cvspublic login % cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/cvspublic co modperl-2.0 -- best regards, randy kobes
